Unarmored Defense[edit]
Beginning at 1st level, while wearing no armor, your AC equals 10 + your Strength modifier + your Wisdom modifier.
Qi Gong[edit]
Beginning at the second level, you can store and manipulate enough Qi to use. Your access to this energy is represented by a number of Qi Threads. You have a number of Qi Threads determined by your gosu level, as shown in the Qi Threads column, plus your Wisdom Modifier. If you reach 0 Qi you gain 1 level of exhaustion.
Earthly Domain[edit]
At the 4th level, you have progressed on your path to heaven far enough that you begin to bend the world to suit your whims. As long as you are conscious, have Qi Threads left, and are not wearing heavy armor, your aura is active with a range of 10 feet and may gain 2 of the following features:
- Your movement speed increases by 10 feet. This increases to 15 feet at level 8 and 20 feet at level 10.
- All creatures (excluding you) have their movement reduced by 10 feet. This increases to 15 feet at level 8 and 20 feet at level 10.
- You have All-Around Sight within your domain
- When you hit a creature in your domain with a weapon attack, you do additional weapon damage equal to your proficiency bonus.
- At the end of your turn, every creature (excluding you) takes 1d4 force damage. This damage increases to 2d4 at 8th, and 3d4 at 10th level.
- You can parry reducing melee damage to 0 up to a number of time equal to your proficiency bonus while in your domain.
- Whenever a creature enters your domain this counts as an opportunity attack, you can use your reaction to attack them.
You may dismiss or reactivate your domain as a bonus action, and it is automatically dismissed once you become unconscious. Additionally, at the end of a long rest, you may choose to swap out all features chosen for any other features. You gain additional features and additional 5 feet of range at 6th (4 features, and 15 feet range), and 8th (6 features, and 20 feet range) and 10th (7 features, and 30 feet range).
Extra attack[edit]
Beginning at the 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the attack action on your turn.
Heavenly Demon Sword Art[edit]
At level 6 Increase the reach of your weapon to the size of your Earthly Domain. Also Whenever you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, it deals additional damage equal to 2 + the number of times you have attacked on your last turn. You can spend 2 Qi Thread to double this damage. Additionally, whenever you make an opportunity attack, you may attack twice instead of once.
Demonic Destruction Art[edit]
Once you have become level 8. At the start of your turn you may spend 10 Qi, all creatures of your choice within your domain must make a Strength saving throw of your level + your Strength or fall to the ground and become prone, taking force damage equal to your gosu level. All flying and prone creatures make the saving throw at a disadvantage. If the creature is already prone and fails the saving throw, they take force damage equal to twice your gosu level. In order for creatures to stand up, they must make a Strength saving throw of your level + your Strength, only standing up if they succeed. Additionally you can use your reaction to stop any outside attacks coming into your domain for the cost of x Qi per damage.
Heavenly Destruction Art[edit]
At level 10 Once per turn, as an action you can choose to attack all creature within your domain at the cost of 2 Qi per attack, you can attack each creature as you normal would when you take the attack action. If you only target one creature for 20 Qi, you can double the number of attacks you would usually make on your attack action.
